    Channel 7 Perth is crap!

    I see from reading the Sunday Times TV guide that the powers that be at Channel 7 have decided to show the Wallabies V Ireland game at 12.30 a.m. on Sunday morning! When are the ARU going to get rid of Channel 7 and sign up a free to air broadcaster who actually wants to show the Rugby? I'm pissed off!!!

    I have just checked the TV guide for Whyalla for the same game on Saturday. Funnily enough, the coverage starts at 12:30am Sunday morning on the regional version of channel 7. This is why I have Austar, not that it will matter for the - Ireland game, because I will be there

    Foxtel has the Pay TV rights for all wallabies tests and Channel 7 has the free to air rights. The problem is that Channel 7 won't want to show live rugby games because they can't put ads into the live coverage, unlike AFL after a goal is scored.

    I know a couple of years ago, they telecast a friendly "land diving" game and went to an ad break when a corner was being taken. A goal was scored and no one saw it, only on replay.

    The Bledisloe is the only game that you are likely to see live in Perth on Channel 7, stick with fox, as they show all games live. If you don't have fox, probably better to keep tabs on scores here or find an online radio broadcast.

    The other thing that Fox has over the Channel 7 coverage is the commentary from Clarkie, Kearnsie, Chalkie et all is brilliantly informative and funny.

    “Let me put it this way, A Springbok team contains Afrikaners, Englishmen, coloureds and blacks. It has parochial foes in Bulls, Sharks, Stormers, Cheetahs and Lions. It is a recipe for war! Yet in all the years of John Smit’s captaincy, there has never been one unhappy customer, not one voice of rebellion against his leadership. He is the glue that holds the Springboks together. The man is a legend!”- Jake White
